Individuals progress through treatment at different rates, but one fact is clear: lasting recovery requires adequate time in care. Research shows that programs shorter than 90 days are generally ineffective, and treatment lasting 120 days or longer provides the best outcomes for maintaining sobriety. That’s why Baja Rehab requires a minimum 4-month stay, with extended options of 6, 9, or 13 months.
Short-term programs often lead to relapse, as patients leave before the deeper issues of addiction are addressed. By committing to long-term treatment, clients gain the time needed to heal physically, mentally, and emotionally while developing the habits and coping strategies that support lasting recovery.
We also recognize that engagement is key. Addiction is a chronic disease, and maintaining motivation can be challenging. Our structured, community-driven approach — combined with continuing care and family involvement — keeps patients connected and accountable. This model not only reduces dropouts but also creates real opportunities for transformation that stick.
